I can see both sides of this. In my thinking on a horizontal shot you could find blood spray ( SIGN ) from exit of the arrow but not have a blood TRAIL immediately if hit was not low in the chest. And on the other hand I see a BETTER CHANCE of a much quicker blood TRAIL on a elevated shot due to sho...

Nice looking rig. You might want to get a couple boxes cheap dove loads to get you close when sighting her in. Those heavy loads are going to punish you with that light of a gun. Then again you might like the punishment I did when I was younger, NOT anymore.

Prayers sent

If I was you, and you want to continue shooting it for plinking. Use 22 shorts !!! I saw one at an auction awhile back and it said on the barrel " 22 short " so I assumed that was all you could shoot in it. Fine looking rifle Joe I would have liked to have the one I saw but my pockets wer...

I go in using no scents wearing rubber boots and try not to touch anything. When a deer comes in I want it to think it's business as usual!

I do this. If the wind isn't right for me to walk in, I don't go.

Me too

This time of year it is afternoon all the way. Earlier in the season I'd have to say mornings.

Good Job

Use what you want . But if using beads remember to get that cheek down on the stock . Many a turkeys life has been spared by a angry swarm of 5`s sailed over the head . :shock: Kinda thinking about starting with #5 shot from reading this & that, anyone have suggestions for brand, size, etc. :eu...

Red dot for me.

I don't do much walmart shopping but when I can get my muzzleloader powder for less than 1/2 price of anywhere else, I'm in. Found abunch of real good steel shotshells last year and between their clearance price and a rebate I found I can't pass up 3" Drylocks for 6 bucks a box.

I don't mean that as a slam, but remember, it's only a sale if you really need it! Over the last few years I have been very lucky to get another chance at life, and finally started giving away stuff I never will use. I am amazed at how much stuff I have accumulated over the years, and how much was ...

Sounds right thanks just saw a sale ad for 3 packs priced 5 bucks. Thought about pickin up some if they might be worth a hoot.

Any idea who makes the expandable heads?

Averaging 3 deer a year on 31/2 acre I'd say you are doing alright.

I've worn the Duck oven goose hunting when it has been around 0 with a pretty stiff wind, all I had on was a heavy base layer a sweatshirt and that coat. Stayed plenty warm wearing that with a good neck gaiter and wool beanie, I tried xxl which is what I normally wear and it was abit tight so went w...
